Museum Batik Indonesia

Museum Batik Indonesia is museum located in Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII), East Jakarta. This museum was established in 2014 as a follow-up to the establishment of Indonesian Batik as a Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO on October 2, 2009. The inclusion of batik on the list made the government feel the need to establish an institution for batik knowledge as well as the culture of batik to embody Indonesian national pride and identity. Currently the management is under the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology.
